Jon Voight is an academy award winning actor who’s career has spanned more than four decades. He is best known for his performances in films such as Midnight Cowboy (1969) and Deliverance (1972), but with his new award-winning TV series Ray Donovan (2013- ) renewed for another series and film Surviving the Wild receiving critical acclaim, Jon Voight is proving he is still at the top of his game. With the release of his new film Surviving the Wild, I was fortunate enough to get some time to talk with Jon about what attracted him to the role, working with his co-star Aiden Cullen and his favourite scenes to film.
I would like to ask you a few questions today about Surviving the Wild. What attracted you to the role originally?
I was given a first draft script and sometimes when these scripts come out the author gets inspired by something. That first draft says everything.
